I'm not sure to understand the entire idea. From what I get, it seems to be 
something like a minimalistic shell, or a way to enumerate/find files and 
process them somewhat like a shell script… Or am I completely off?

I guess this doesn't really fit into anything we have. It would be nice to have 
a "better shell" for Étoilé in the long run. We haven't put many thoughts into 
it. A CLI that combines CoreObject, LanguageKit and the collection protocols in 
EtoileFoundation is something that could be really nice.

For this project, you can probably put it in a branch or we can see if there is 
a use in Étoilé later. 

You might also prefer to host it as a completely standalone project, and we can 
still migrate it to Étoilé later.

Cheers,
Quentin.
